Experts said that the Samsung S10 series smartphones will be released in a limited edition. They will be produced in ceramic design and in several colors. The company made the right choice by deciding to produce them in light colors.

Dark colors have already bothered users. They emphasize the premium modification of phones more. Previous series also offered boring coloring like prisms. Series 10 Plus is available in mother-of-pearl, onyx, aquamarine, black and white ceramic.

However, the exclusive color of the case is not the only advantage that the device manufacturers can boast of. It has more powerful hardware than other less luxury smartphones.

The Snapdragon-855 processor, already familiar to everyone, was installed by manufacturers for models intended for America and China, for Russia - the eight-core Exynos 9820 chipset. which reaches 10 GB, which is a record for today.

Increased display size. According to the developers, it is 6.4 inches, but due to the rounded edges and the built-in front camera in the screen, it is smaller. Its resolution reaches 1440x3040 with an aspect ratio of 19:9. The difference between the parameters from its younger brothers, such as S10e noticeable, the screen size of the latter is only 5.2 inches.

Manufacturers decided to equip the front camera with two sensors of 10 and 8 megapixels with f / 1.9 and f / 2.2 aperture, respectively. And for the rear camera, succumbing to the global trend, the developers decided to install three matrices already.Now this combination is 12 + 12 + 16 megapixels with a panoramic view.

This ratio had an excellent effect on shooting, even at night. It has always been the main goal of the company. They always pay special attention to them. Improvements are noticeable in the volume of the battery, which is now equal to 4100 mAh. The device can be in standby mode for several days. With active work, the charge lasts up to 12 hours.

Design

The design of the frameless smartphone turned out to be very interesting. There is nothing superfluous in it, the developers have tried to make it as comfortable and functional as possible. It has good ergonomics and sits well in the hand. Dimensions are calculated under the usual hand of an average adult.

Buttons, sensors and cameras are arranged in such a way as to create comfort from using the device. Although many experts claim that the company decided to create a certain image of the S line of smartphones, there are warm colors in the design, an aluminum case with a ceramic design, the presence of three rear cameras and large memory.

The layout of the buttons remained standard, the manufacturer did not forget about those who like to listen to the radio, so he retained the 3.5 mm jack. There is a slot for installing two SIM cards and a flash drive.

This is nothing more than an attempt to create an individual image of flagship phones. In the lineup there are budget options, as well as more expensive gadgets. Many agree that the smartphone is Apple's answer to their new iPhone XR series.

Despite the dissatisfaction of many, the phone did not turn out so plain. It has a smooth outline, surpasses many analogs of other manufacturers in terms of parameters.

The functionality includes many patented features of Samsung. The design style is unique to them, unlike Chinese brands that prefer to copy other models.

In general, the device turned out to be very interesting. It cannot be called only children's, female or male. Depending on the color version, it can be soft or brutal. This new generation of smartphones is unisex, which can be used by all people, regardless of age and gender.

Display

The phone received a screen size of 6.4 inches, but with an actual diagonal of less than 6.3. It has no frames and is made according to the technology of manufacturing an active matrix of LEDs. The developers have added protective glass Gorilla 6 series. It can withstand heavy loads.

However, you should always keep in mind that developers never count on a fall from a height of several meters. The design value is no more than one and a half meters. It is at a distance from the floor that the apparatus is located in everyday life. It can be a coffee table or a person's hand.

The smartphone is available in different versions.For the American continent, the manufacturer used Adreno-640 GPUs, for the European part - Mali-G76-MP12 with a clock frequency of 2.8 GHz.

A dynamic matrix on organic light-emitting diodes (Dynamic AMOLED) is used. It has a high degree of color rendering. These are often used on modern LCD monitors and TVs. The quality of images and videos is close to realistic. The use of such a screen on phones is the first of its kind, as no one has yet implemented this technology in their products. It supports the HDR10+ playback standard, which is also an innovation in the world of electronics.

The difference from other brands lies in the integration of the fingerprint scanner into the display itself. Now it is not on the back side, as it was before, but is built into the matrix itself. This feature is unique to Samsung brands. It should be expected that soon other global manufacturers will begin to apply this technology to their devices.

He copes well with the load, there are no cases that he once freezes in the game, when viewing heavy photos or video files. The playback quality is excellent, which distinguishes this brand from all other brands.

The playback quality is excellent, there are no distortions or clouding. The video is played in high resolution. The textures of the games are drawn extremely realistically, there are no freezes. Users are especially pleased with the number of colors, which is 16 million shades.

Thanks to this option, gray gradation is improved. All silhouettes and contours are clearly highlighted. It does not darken in the sun, all objects are perfectly visible. It is possible to adjust the brightness for dark and daylight hours, which saves battery power.

Camera

Following the global trend - to use two modules each, one of which is monochrome, Samsung has become a leader in this aspect too. The developers used three sensors, two at 12 and one at 16 megapixels for the main camera. The maximum aperture sensitivity to light is f/2.4. They are equipped with the function of double pixelation, auto focus, face detection and image stabilization.

The use of new technologies pleases, the use of three cameras significantly affects the quality of images. It is difficult to notice them with a non-professional eye, but the photos are clear even at night. This result is achieved thanks to a bright flash and the use of three modules with a standard matrix sensitivity. But many experts say that the increase in the number of blocks is more likely to have a marketing basis and lead to a rise in the price of the product, but not to better images.

Everyone has long known that users are more interested in the number of cameras, but not the result of photography. Although there is no need to complain about the quality of photos and videos, as it is always on top. The developers have always paid special attention to them, the good quality of the cameras and the resulting images is just the hallmark of the company.

The front camera is also dual and takes excellent selfies. A suitable choice for travel lovers and self-photographers. The result is significantly different from the rear version, but in good light, the images are clear. It has an autofocus option. There is a digital zoom, but for selfies it is not so important. There are several shooting modes.

Chipset

Surprisingly, the Samsung Galaxy S10 + smartphone turned out to be very productive.Even the most optimistic users did not expect this from the developers. Its filling includes the Snapdragon 855 chipset already familiar to many, which has good performance in terms of speed and information processing. But such a filling is only for devices intended for sale in America and China.

For Russian buyers, the developers have equipped it with the Exynos 9820 chipset, which has excellent performance parameters. It is made using 8 nanometer technology and has 8 cores. It uses two Mongoose M4 layers clocked at 2.7 GHz, two Cortex-A75 processors at 2.3 GHz, four Cortex-A55 processors at 1.9 GHz.

This is a new stage in the field of improving the quality of work and performance of electronic devices. It is capable of handling huge amounts of data.

• 12 GB RAM and 1 TB hard drive.

The latest model is notable for the fact that not even all modern computers are equipped with such a size of space on the media. If we add another 512 GB of removable media to it, then in the compartment we get 1.5 TB for storing the necessary information and installing programs.
